Microplastics, the microscopic plastics, are fragments of any type of plastic that are being
produced today as plastic waste originating from anthropogenic activities. Such …

Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy has been extensively used in microplastic
(MP) pollution research since 2004. The aim of this review is to discuss and highlight the …

The prevalence of micro and nanoplastics (MNPs) across the various environments and
their negative impact on ecosystems have become a serious global threat and are currently …

Microplastic pollutes water, land, air, and groundwater environments not only visually but
also ecologically for plants, animals, and humans. Microplastic has been reported to act as …

Abstract Microplastics (MPs)/nanoplastics (NPs) are widely found in the natural environment,
including soil, water and the atmosphere, which are essential for human survival. In the …

Microplastics are widely distributed environmental contaminants. To understand their
impacts on the environment and health, more high-quality results are needed. Since …

Microplastics are proven as heavy metals vector, but the adsorption mechanism still unclear.
This study investigated the adsorption of Pb and Cu in microplastics in the Musi River and …

The air pollution in Jakarta has been recorded regularly; meanwhile, the information of
atmospheric microplastics is still unknown. This study examines the characteristics (shape …

Microplastics exist widely in water environment. The microplastic distribution in sediments
can better reflect the long-term microplastic pollution, especially the vertical distribution …

The distribution, characteristics, and ecological risk of microplastics in beach sand and
seawater samples collected along the shore of Rayong province, Thailand, were …
